Roy Hodgson says he will cherish the reception he received from West Brom supporters on his return to The Hawthorns.

The Crystal Palace boss was met with a warm reception from the home support as he led his Eagles against the Baggies, having previously managed West Brom between February 2011 and May 2012.

The home support could be heard chanting 'there's only one Roy Hodgson, one Roy Hodgson' among other things, and the Palace manager said it was a proud moment for him to hear the supporters of the opposition singing his name.

"I will go home with a smile on my face, not least of course because of the reception I got from the fans, which I thought was fantastic," he said.
